Review for user sleepdragon from jiffylube1024

  • Bought a P4 2.4C @ 3.4 Ghz from sleepdragon.

    jiffylube1024 was the Seller on February 22, 2006 AnandTech

    CPU arrived quickly and in perfect condition. Heatsink was brand new too :) .

    I got bludgeoned on cross-border fees because UPS decided to charge a brokerage fee of $30 (plus tax!) on top of the 15% duty charge, which I\'m not sure is part of UPS\'s new shipping policy or because he got tracking.

    Either way we both learned something about UPS (it\'s better to stick to USPS for shipping to Canada).

    He\'s worked with me dilligently by giving me good info on overclocking the CPU - I\'m unable to replacate his o/c to date but I suspect it\'s because my picky board wants RAM to be run at 1:1 ratio (since I switched to cheap value RAM this is not an option).

    All in all I\'m satisfied with the CPU and my purchase - just stay away from UPS with tracking my Canadian friends :) .
